Ericho's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[SMRPG Waltz of the Forest]

Who's Geno?

Yep, I knew that you were the guy who made this. The sad thing is that I know next to nothing about Super Mario RPG as it's one of the few Mario games I've never played! The thing is, I am actually not a fan of RPG's, but Mario's my favorite video game series! It really goes to show how many different styles he can use. It was great to see such a wide variety of characters, especially with how you drew them. You have true artistic talent.

The only thing I know about the game is really from the stuff you've made. Everyone looks so three-dimensional in this. The best part is probably when you show off the map of it so you can get a clear picture of what you're dealing with. Psyguy has a very sweet voice in this too. Congradulations on completing college and have a wonderful life!

Psy never sang in this song.

[Pencilmation #18]

Pretty good

It's great to see the "Pencilmation" series back, but I miss Hank. Well, he's probably tired of sticking with your crap anyways. It would have been funny to see him take control of the pencil and get his revenge on you! I've seen so many I can't tell if this has been done before. When the guy got his third eye, he kind of looked like Dr. Manhattan, with the symbol on his head. I thought you were going to draw a lion.

The thing is, this wasn't as creative as most other entries. It does work because it's got the same animation style as usual. I imagine it must be very meta drawing a pencil in Flash for these cartoons. It was fairly unpredictable and the music was nice. I guess it will take some time for me to get used to it without Hank.

[Employee of the Month!]

Gaaaasspp

It's amazing how you were able to adapt a single comic into a popular flash cartoon! Anyway, the coolest thing about this was how good the voice acting was. For something short, there were sure a lot of people working on it. It was interesting because you had no idea what was going to happen next. I will say that I was a tad disappointed by the punchline. The animation is good, especially with how the characters move around.

I imagine that Hell would need some new employees every now and then. Now, you also have the Weekly 5th Place to add to your list of achievements for this cartoon. It's good how chipper the main character sounds. I'd do the same if I went to Hell and got that honor. While the animation wasn't that complicated, it still flowed nicely.

[MvC3: Hulk]

Can't believe I missed this one!

It kind of makes me wonder what you would think of the game once you played it. I didn't realize how many of these cartoons there were hanging around. This should go in its own collection! Anyway, this was pretty good because it was interesting to see you submit something that was entirely a flash cartoon. I can't even remember the last time you did it, because it seems like everything you do submit is a game. It's always great to see you showing off your artistic talent.

The artwork itself wasn't that great, but it fits the cheesy tone. I never realized how many fruits and vegetables there were that are long and green. Hopefully, the Hulk will be able to keep his pants on in the game. It's so cool to see that loading screen where all the characters are standing, looking so awesome. The Hulk was the goofiest looking of them all by far.

[Dragonball ZZZ]

Title fits

The weird thing was that this did have some really good parts in it, particularly at the end. A slideshow featuring the DBZ characters is awesome! I guess it was kind of self-depredation because you acknowledged how silly it was. I did think it was insensitive to show pictures of the 911 survivors. Then again, I guess it's going to be ten years since that happened, so maybe time has healed all wounds. It was also hard to understand.

I could tell you used Speakonia for everything. While I should be used to it, it just came off as very unclear in this. I also didn't like it how one of the images was presented in really low resolution. The stuff in the credits had higher resolution, so it seems more like you just didn't care. At least you had an original joke for a name pun.

long review

[Closure Teaser Trailer]

Wow

I think this is the first Newgrounds submission I've ever seen where there was a preview icon like on a YouTube video. It's great to see that you guys have become so successful with your work. The original game was great, but this looks like it will be even better! The music is fantastic not to mention there's so much detail in everything. While I doubt I'll ever play this game on a console, it's worth taking note of. The coolest thing is probably how you can jump in the darkness.

There's just such a twisted series of things going on in this trailer. I'm normally not that big a fan for trailers here but this was an exception. Everything just seemed so haunting in this. There were so many colors that were just flashing out but so many unique ways everything was drawn. I know I'm going to be in for a bumpy ride when I play this.

["Frank's Masterpiece"]

Quite different

I had no idea that Hank was in cartoons besides the Pencilmation series. The coolest thing about this was the animation. I am surprised it does not have a higher score, because while it didn't use meta concepts, it was still great. It's also strange because Hank actually seems to get what he wants in the end. It kind of makes you wonder what masterpiece it would have been. Probably your next submission, knowing you.

Everything was just so vibrant and there was a great sense of dimension. I did not need to see Hank's little penis flapping around. I guess he's supposed to be an adult, but he sure acts like a child. It was interesting to see such zany antics as can be expected of someone like him. Yeah "Lawrence Of Arabia" was a great movie too.

[Sonic VS Knuckles:Battle]

So little happens

This was rather unertaining to watch, because really nothing happened in this. It was just Sonic and Knuckles touching each other in odd places to form a fight of some kind. Wow, I just realized how dirty that sounds. While the coloring is not the worst, you should have some stuff going on. I guess it was supposed to be a non-sequitor anti-climax thing, but it just didn't work for me. I know realize the humor of your name having "chili" in it because it's Sonic's favorite food.

It kind of reminds me of how I just went to Sonic for dinner tonight. But I digress, this should at least have some better sound, although the song wasn't too bad. The one thing that was a bit interesting was how it led up to itself. It is just that a lot of flashes submitted are so unique and anti-action isn't what we want here. An actual fight would be more enjoyable.
